kill a detective

Tokyo is worthy of being a big city, and the shop windows are spotlessly wiped down.

Thanks to this, Kaoru Nishi Kujo clearly saw her lover who disappeared five years ago in a neat uniform, her blond hair was shimmering, and she was smiling gently at the youthful female high school student.

Just smiling and serving two cups of coffee doesn't explain anything.

"Want to drink coffee? The coffee in this coffee shop is really good, and there are sandwiches. I often eat it when I come to Tokyo on business trips." The partner who was traveling with her misunderstood the long silence of her standing still on the street.Apart from a black suit, this Yokohama Port Mafia boy who looked nothing like a gangster and even helped the old woman cross the street thoughtfully expressed a moderate amount of concern.

"When Nakaya-kun came here before, was the waiter also the man inside?"

Zhong Yuanzhong also took a look inside. "Well, it seems to be him. I heard that he is still a detective."

detective?

It is understandable if it is that guy, after all, he fell in love with reasoning many years ago.Speaking of which, when he disappeared, he had just graduated from the police academy, and he could be said to be a half-professional.

What surprised Kaoru Nishikujo even more than his occupation was the fact that he was still alive.

When he just disappeared five years ago, she searched the entire Tokyo upside down, from day to night, even the police gave up and came to persuade her gently: "Don't look any further, we are reasonable. I suspect that your boyfriend is probably dead, let him go and take a good rest."

She was very angry at that time.It's hard to understand how the police could say such irresponsible things to her.Live to see people, die to see corpses.Even if he is missing, it will take seven years before he can be judged dead.

But a corner of my heart seemed to cast a shadow very clearly—waiting very lonely, one day, to confirm his death.

Even if it becomes empty, I still can't let it go.Because her poor boyfriend has no relatives or reasons, if she even gives up, no one will collect the corpse even if it is exposed in the wilderness.

When he made a deal with the big boss Aizan and returned to the present world, although he said that he would find him no matter what, Kaoru Nishikujo had already made plans to see a corpse or a tombstone.

So when I saw him so energetic through the transparent glass window, I was surprised and happy at first, and then I was overwhelmed by a wave of regret.

Nakahara Chuya asked her again: "Do you want to eat something? It's still early before the evening trading time."

"No, let's work first."

People are always close to home and timid.

She thought she wasn't ready to face him just yet.

but--

The world is really small, and Tokyo is just that big.

Kaoru Nishikujo wondered if she had really tried to find her missing boyfriend, otherwise how could she run into him twice in one day, but she searched non-stop for five months but found nothing?Judging by the frequency of encounters, unless the other party deliberately avoided her, they would have encountered her seventeen or eight times.

Oh, how is it possible.Fugu Ling wouldn't deliberately hide from her—?

Looking through the gate of the bar, the beautiful woman with blond hair and red lips approached the handsome young man with blond hair and black skin, and embraced her with both hands, her turbulent chest pressed her arms. The latter half lowered her head and talked to her.

Kaoru Nishikujo wiped his face, and asked Chuya Nakahara, who looked like a good man: "Mr. Nakahara, if your girlfriend suddenly disappeared, you would worry about her so much that you would forget to eat and sleep, looking for her day and night, or even... "You can't say anything about the virtual circle. To put it another way, "Even after being blocked abroad, you tried every means to come back, but it turned out that she had already married a new lover, and there might be more than one. What would you do?"

"Ah?" Zhongyuan Zhong, who didn't know what he was thinking, also came back to his senses, and replied casually: "Kill it."

Okay, so here comes the question, what kind of attitude should I kill him, so that it won't appear that we are careless?

"Information says that the contacts of the black organization are a man and a woman. There are two bottles of wine in front of them, one bottle of bourbon and one bottle of absinthe."

Kaoru Nishikujo's eyes fell on the table in front of his ex-boyfriend and his damned woman: "..."

Isn't this a coincidence?

"Huh? Isn't that the man in the coffee shop during the day? ——Oh, he is the connector, what a coincidence." The model worker Nakahara Chuya said that he was about to complete the transaction. After walking two steps, he found that Kaoru Nishikujo was not there. follow up. "Why don't you leave?"

"It suddenly occurred to me that something urgent—"

"What's your hurry?"

"I forgot to turn off the gas at home."

"..." Faced with such an obvious lie, the kind-hearted Nakaya-kun just sighed lightly. "Forget it, I'll go by myself—"

I'm sorry, Nakaya-kun, I really can't go to see him now.

Waiting in the dark, the meeting tonight is just to finalize the details of the future transaction, so the conversation is over soon.Zhong Yuanzhong also left the bar first, and the remaining two drank for a while before going out one after the other.

Kaoru Nishikujo followed them.Transformed into a virtual form, she is invisible to ordinary people. To her, the speed of a human car is no different from that of an ant. It is easy for her to follow without being noticed.

Rei Furutani put the woman down somewhere, and then went back to an apartment.It seems to be his own residence.

Kaoru Nishikujo stood downstairs in the apartment building and looked up, a light was dimly lit in the dark night.

When they were together, they also rented a small apartment like this one, and the two made a big promise - "I will buy an apartment ten times bigger than this one in the future!".

But the good times didn't last long. After Jiang Guling disappeared, she just graduated from university and couldn't afford the rent, and she didn't want to cause trouble to her parents.That apartment soon became a thing of the past.She defected to a family of relatives living in Tokyo.

It is said that they are relatives, but in fact there is no blood relationship at all.Kaoru Nishikujo's parents died in a car accident when she was very young. Before she was sent to an orphanage, she was adopted by a kind couple.The relatives she went to were the children of her adoptive mother and sister.

At that time, I was busy looking for Jiang Guling, but I rarely went back to that home.The two younger brothers and sisters in the family are very cute, and they brought the only warmth to that difficult time.

Now that I think about it, it seems like a long time.

They have all been pushed by time to grow up and go far away.Only she seemed to be living in the past and refused to wake up.

Kaoru Nishikujo turned and landed in Fugu Ling's bedroom. As soon as he returned to his human form, the latter turned over and jumped off the bed, with his long arms pulled from under the pillow, aiming the black muzzle of the gun at her head.

But maybe it's time for her to wake up too.

"who is it?"

Kaoru Nishikujo slowly walked from the shadow of the curtain into the melting moonlight.

In the misty light, with black hair and snow skin, a pair of black eyes stared at him quietly, as if he had a thousand words to say but nothing to say.

Fugu Ling paused with the hand holding the gun.I recognized the person.The memory that was deliberately suppressed in the depths opened the gate, and the past years were like a flood, choking the throat.

"Xiao Xun—" The long-standing name stuck in his throat, but he couldn't say it out.

The cool wind overflowed from the window, waking up Jiang Gu Linghun's swollen head, and he suddenly realized that even if he would meet Xiao Xun again, it would never be here.His residence here, except for the people in the organization, no one else will know.What's more, Xiao Xun is so weak and weak, how could she break into other people's houses at night?

His expression suddenly turned cold, and the muzzle of the gun moved back to his heart.

"who are you!"

His words pierced Nishikujo Kaoru's heart more sharply than a thorn.

...He, he doesn't remember her?

Her refusal to give up, and her cowardice towards homeland all turned into a joke in this questioning.Starting from the hole in the waist and abdomen, emptiness and loneliness spread in the rush of blood. After returning to the real world, Kaoru Nishikujo truly felt for the first time that the power belonging to the void was stirring in his body, as if he had just returned to the void. At this moment, the emptiness in the stomach urgently needs to be filled by the soul, and everything in front of the eyes, the people who once loved can't see clearly like green smoke.

"Bang—" A low gunshot brought back a trace of sanity.She saw that the Zanpakutō in her hand had reached the man's chest, and those rain-washed blue-gray eyes looking at her were more beautiful than the moonlight.

At the critical moment, the icy Zanpakuto turned into a short sword with a blue light, and plunged straight into the man's heart.

Then the blue-gray eyes closed again softly and slowly.

"Ome—" Kaoru Nishikujo held the slowly falling Fugu Rei, and gently called out the name of the supernatural power.

------------------

The feeling of all the river water pouring into the chest cavity was very uncomfortable, so as soon as it came into contact with the air, Kaoru Nishikujo quickly spit out all the water in his internal organs.After vomiting comfortably, she realized that there was a strange white desert around her.

Where is this place?

Kaoru Nishikujo remembers that she stumbled and fell into the Edo River, and no one noticed her in the middle of the night. She sank all the way to the bottom of the river, thinking she was going to rot, and her bones were found ten or twenty years later. Unsolved case...

Wait - so she's dead now?Kaoru Nishikujo hurriedly felt herself up and down, and found a hole in her waist and abdomen—she bent down, and through the hole on her body, she saw the white fine sand behind her.Put your hand in and feel the wind.

...It's definitely dead.No one can live like this.

What, the world after death is like this.There is no Santuchuan, and there is no Naihe Bridge.A bit shabby.

Kaoru Nishikujo wandered in this white desert with everything he wanted and nothing for a long time, dizzy and dizzy from hunger.Although she couldn't figure out why people would still be hungry after death, anyway, when she was so hungry that she was in a trance, she casually grabbed something at hand and bit it down, and slipped it into her stomach in one gulp——

Hey, it's so unpalatable.

But at least he came alive.

What she saw she ate was a monster with a black outer body and a white long-nosed mask.She occasionally encounters this kind of thing in the desert, which is as tall as a dozen floors——

She can eat such a thing in one bite, what kind of monster is she!

Well, forget it, they're all dead anyway.Probably dead food is just that.

That piece of white desert is silent when there is no wind, like a cemetery of heaven and earth, and the years flow away in the solitude that makes people want to die.

One day—there was no sun or moon, who knows when—Nishikujo Kaoru finally met the second person in the white desert.

The man wore black-rimmed glasses, his dark brown hair hung softly on his temples, and he had a gentle voice. "Wild Varstord?"

Kaoru Nishikujo looked around, confirmed that he was talking to her, and shook his head: "No, I'm not Wild Varstord, I'm Kaoru Nishikujo."

"Huh? Has a name?" He seemed to have heard something funny, "Did you pick it up yourself, or do you have memories of your life?"

"I was called this when I was alive, what's your name?"

"Interesting—I'm Aizen Soyousuke."

He was gentle and polite, and his advances and retreats were measured, which made Kaoru Nishikujo, who was still naive at that time, mistakenly think that he was a good person.
